Just kind of curious on this matter, are you able to put one on a standard engine stand?

You have to modify the engine stand. Mazdatrix and Pineapple racing sell adaptor plates. Let me find some links...

Yes you can and without the adapter. You can't build it that way, but it comes in handy when putting the manifolds and stuff on.

That's what I'm talking about, just putting it on the stand so I can move it around the garage easier than having to lift it and move it all over...

Going to stip it down to the block, but i need mobility

So a standard stand will allow the engine to be bolted up then?
